Gooseneck Barnacles (Lepas anatifera) on Aug 30, 2013
Submitter does not have a specimen
Description of specimen
There were thousands of these barnacles on this log. I assume it is a type of gooseneck barnacle
Commentary
None
Location
These barnacles were found on a large log off the Taylor Dunes Trail heading south on the beach. I have never seen anything like these before in all of my years of hiking and am not entirely sure what they are. I wanted to report this since it appeared to come from the storm surge yesterday.
